QUESTION
How can I get legal access to my vacant condo?
Asked on Jan 22nd, 2016 on Foreclosures - Florida
More details to this question:
I vacated my condo when I surrendered it as part of my Chapter 7 bankruptcy 5.5 yrs ago. I am the owner and it is not in foreclosure. The bank has a company monitoring it and, after they re-keyed it, they installed a combination lock. Since the bank has refused to foreclose, and since I am liable for the property, I want to make it livable and possibly move back in. Can I have a locksmith remove the lock?

You'll need to talk to yourBK lawyer as you may well have surrendered the propety possession in the Chap. 7. This is a common issue wth the post BK filing accrual of COA dues where banks dont foreclose for extended periods of time.
